80GB: Asus P5A-B-00
Posted: Mon Dec 29, 2003 9:08 pm
Award Bios - Award Modular BIOS v4.51 PG
Award ID String - 08/18/1999-ALADDIN5-P5A-B-00
Board/BIOS Version ASUS P5A-B ACPI BIOS Revision 1007.A
Chip - Aladdin ALi M1543C
I hope someone can help me figure this out - the new 80GB hard drive isn't recognized when booted and it's connected as slave. Attempted to connect as master and machine hangs up - won't boot at all. Discovered I probably need new BIOS to make it work. Found 1011.005 from ASUS after reading about similar situations on the forum. Followed procedures using ASUS' AFLASH - wouldn't work. Tried using UNIFLASH - received message "File size does not match flash ROM chip size". I'm at a loss as what to do next. Can someone please direct me to a solution?
Thanks in advance.
